BOSTON (AP) — U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren has met with Boston Mayor Thomas Menino to push for tougher gun control measures in the wake of the recent elementary school shooting in Connecticut.
Warren said Friday that she supports three proposals including one requiring criminal background checks for all gun sales.
The Massachusetts Democrat said she also backs a ban on assault weapons and another proposal to make gun trafficking a federal crime.
Menino, co-founder of the group Mayors Against Illegal Guns, said lawmakers need to stand up to those opposed to gun regulations including the National Rifle Association.
Menino also said Gov. Patrick should name a gun-control advocate to fill Sen. John Kerry’s seat if Kerry becomes secretary of state.
That interim appointee would serve until a special election is held.
Shocker
LIBTARD
but they cant change the constitution, gl with it
Waaaahh I’m a gun enthusiast. Oh yeah, I’m a ******** enthusiast! Want to see me shoot?
WOW!!!! Who didn’t see that comming?
Shocker! Seeing how she’s practically in bed with Obama! Just wish she’d talk like a robot too at least it would make it more interesting!
Wahhhhhh. I need government to babysit me. Wahhhh. I’m not responsible enough to make my own decisions.
This shouldn’t be about what ELIZABETH WARREN wants. She should be listening to the people and reading her flooded emails.Leave the second amendment alone!
Impeach!
nothing to say, Maryanne I think speaks for most of us
She is going to back everything that comes out of Chief Obama. Remember she is an Indian
How did so many people vote for her. They didn’t learn after voting for Obama again. Really this shouldn’t be a surprise
These are already laws here…. Obama is putting in the same laws we have here in Mass already, just like he did with Obamacare….. it is not going to make a difference here. The new law to have liability insurance on the other hand is going to far.
U allow them to start changing the constitution, wait people and see what’s next.
The rest of freedoms u care about will slowly go away if they don’t benefit the government.
Another scumbag goes to Washington.
